Displaying most recent value available, even when other columns have a MORE recent value available

Margaret — Wed, 02 Nov 2022 15:49:01 GMT

Hello,

I need to display the most recent value available, along with the date it is associated with, even when other values are associated with an even more recent date. (Then, second step: compare that value with another value associated with that date, to determine what color to display the first value in.) Attached is a sample qvw. Also below is a smaller set of sample data.

I am able to successfully do what is needed for the first two columns, using

=FirstSortedValue([OP MARGIN BCH],-DateKey)

since there are no later dates than the dates for the values I want.

But I want a chart to display for

Monthly Mortality, like this:

8/1/2022 0.1 (in red) 0.85

and for New Patient Acquisition, like this:

9/1/2022 82988 (in red) 85000

sample data (also in attached qvw)
